WARNING
Before attempting any adjustments to the cutting
height or front baffle, STOP the engine, remove the
spark plug wire from th e spark plug and secure wire
away from plug. DO NOT make any adjustmen ts with
engine or blade running. Be extremely careful when
performing adjustments around engine. Engine is
extremely hot and can cause severe burns. Wear
heavy leather gloves when handling or working
around cutting blades. Blades are extremely sharp
and can cause severe injury.
2.6 RECYCLING OPERATION
NOTE: For best recycling results, cut up to a m axim um of
1/3 of grass blade length and recycle ONLY when grass is
dry.
1. Set all wheels in the highest cutting position
(Notch 6).
2. Move engine speed control to “FAST” (Rabbit)
position.
3. Move ground speed control to slowest speed
setting.
4. Proceed mowing slowly. If grass is very dense,
lower each rear wheel latch one notch lower than
the front wheel latches to improve recycling
performance.
2.7 ADJUSTING FRONT DECK BAFFLE
(Models with an “F” prefix in model number)
(Example: F
R215012)
The front of the cutting deck on these m odels has
been modified with an open area. This allows the
blade to have more direc t c ontact with the grass and
allows more air flow into deck chamber. The
adjustable baffle should be secured in the lowest
position when using a grass bag. T he baffle should
be secured in the highest position when mulching
grass.
NOTE: Under certain conditions, when mulching, some
grass may blow out from under front of baffle. This is
normal but, the amount of grass blowing out can be
reduced. Lower baffle slightly to reduce the amount of
grass blow out.
1. Stop engine. See WARNING above.
2. Loosen wing nuts that secure front deck baffle.
See Figure 2.8.
3. Lower the adjustable baffle to the lowest position
when using a grass bag. Raise the baffle to its
highest position when mulching grass. Take care to
keep the baffle’s lower edge par allel to the bottom of
the deck. See Figure 2.8.
4. Retighten wing nuts securely.

power from engine to drive disc. The drive disc powers
the poly-v belt which engages the transmission that
powers the rear wheels. Should these belts becom e
worn, they could cause slippage which would impair
mower perform ance. The condition of the engine belt
and poly-v belt should be checked after every 25 hours
of mower operation.

PRIMARY MAINTENANCE
On 2-cycle engines, lubrication must be
provided by an exact mixture of gasoline
and 2-cycle air-cooled engine oil. A 2-cycle
engine that is mistakenly run on straight
gasoline will be ruined in less than 5
minutes! If you keep straight gasoline in
addition to pre-mixed 2-cycle engine fuel,
be sure the containers are clearly marked
to avoid mix-up.
Snapper 2-cycle engines require a 32 to 1
mixture of gasoline and BIA certified TC-W
oil such as Snapper’s 2-cycle engine oil.
Many of the 2-cycle engine oils on the
market today make fantastic claims, but for
the best performance and long engine life,
always use Snapper 2-cycle oil. Pre-mix the
fuel and always shake the container before
filling the tank.
Change oil at regular intervals using a high
quality oil such as Snapper’s small engine
